Exactly...I tell people that knitting is my fidget. but it is more than that. It makes me feel like my time is being captured somehow and isn't lost forever. well, that works unless I have to rip out the 25 rows I did at a party because I was a bit too tipsy to work the pattern right. (I try to just do straight knitting if I know I will be knitting in the dark or while drinking.)No wonder I like you. Muggles think I'm weird when I bring knitting to a board or card game! Or a departmental meeting.....but something productive has to come out of those meetings, and it's the only way it'll ever happen! And during exams. Many semesters, finals means a new sweater, as I knit while I proctor. Not this semester, though.
